Alberta Sand and Gravel Deposits with Aggregate Potential (GIS data, polygon features)

Authors: Edwards, W.A.D.; Budney, H.D.

Executive Summary

This GIS dataset is a result of the compilation of all existing Alberta Geological Survey sand and gravel geology and resource data into digital format. Data sources include Alberta Geological Survey maps and reports produced between 1976 and 2006.

References are provided as an attribute so the user can refer back to the original maps and reports. Attributes include study level, material description, references, area, sand and gravel thickness, and gravel and sand volumes.

In 2009, data from newly mapped area NTS 83N/NE were added.
